ball Music,

Some OF the members Of the Germania
Maennerchor were very Indignant yester-
day over the statement made In the RE.
PUBLICAN that the small crowd at their
opening ball was due to the fact that the
orchestra which they had engaged was
Don-union one. The secretary stated that
the ball was not a failure, that the deficit
was not more than $50, while some OF the
opening balls have caused a loss of almost
800 The statement that the X OF l..
members OF the Maennerchor had boycotted
the ball came from member OF one OF the
active committees, VINO further said that he
was Knight himself and was afraid that he
would get into trouble because OF his connec-
tlon with II. The only error was made in say.
ing that the orchestra was Krause's when It
really was Naecker's on this point the re.
porter was misiuformed, and this correction
is made In justice to Mr.. Krause, who is
leader Of the Rifles band, another musical
organization.
Naecker was engaged because he Is a
member OF the Maenncrchor, aud the secre-
tary OF that society said last night that
neither politics, religion, or social differ
